CB77 Head pipes from Ohio Cycle don't fit my OE mufflers

Post by Hoosier Tom » Sun May 15, 2011 1:26 pm

Hey gang. I bought a set of repop head pipes from Ohio Cycle. Nick was upfront that this 3rd run of pipes had an extra die mark that detracted from the pipe but would still fit the bike. Well, they don't fit my OE mufflers. The flange will not clamp down square to the exhaust seat. My original head pipes fit just fine. The flange angle is wrong on the repops compared to my originals. In the photo showing the flange angle of the original vs repop, the repop is on the top. I sent Nick an e-mail and am waiting for a reply. If you are running an aftermarket, non pattern exhaust you might get by, but with the 3 mount location of the Honda mufflers the repop pipes I received do not fit properly.
